Welcome to the once and future Spyhop Blog

Official Blog of the Cape Lookout Studies Program

When a dolphin elevates about half-way out of the water vertically to see what’s going on around it, it’s called a spyhop. When you want to see what’s going on with the Cape Lookout Studies Program and our most recent activities – you can come here to check out the Spyhop Blog.

We were blogging when blogging wasn’t cool

The original Spyhop Log (started way back in 1997) was on our old website. Eventually a blog was established on blogspot. You can still access the Spyhop Blog by clicking here. Soon, we’ll have all the posts (new, old and very old) right here on the website. Please be patient with us as we try to improve your experience on our website.

The Blogspot blog has now been imported! The next step will be to add the old Spyhop Log entries from the original website. Stay tuned!
